It's a good week to be a DS fan.
I do believe it is time for another edition of Discountoid. GameStop and Best Buy both have a truckload of DS games on sale this week. The former has placed their focus on Ubisoft's library, while the latter has most of those and a few other tasty treats as well.
Also, turn your attention to Amazon this week if you haven't picked up Persona 3: FES yet. They currently have the limited edition with soundtrack on offer for almost half off their regular price. And while you're buying PS2 games, I'd recommend snagging Metal Slug Anthology for less than eighteen smackers.
All the deals come, as usual, after the jump.

They love the white stuff ;)
And dammit, Conrad, why must you tempt me!
also, you should be a fixture on retroforce go! this past show was just a little less happy, and a lot more listenable.

With BestBuy's price drop and the coupon it's an unbeatable deal.
Then buy Persona 4 as well :D
Well, there are two listings on Amazon for Persona 3: FES. The one linked in the post is described as having a soundtrack CD and artbook. A cursory search of the interwebs brought this to my attention as well:
I could be wrong, but that looks to be a limited edition with a soundtrack cd.
Gamestop is selling Final Fantasy III for the DS for $9.99, not Final Fantasy II. FFII isn't even available on the DS.
You can see this in the full-size PDF of their ad.
@Dinnertimeninja- thanks for heads up, I tried to use the 10 dollars off, but was told they wouldn't accept it, oh well, 30 dollars is still a good deal
Persona 3 FES is the expanded Persona 3, its got some extra content, new personas, new cutscenes, there's no reason buy the normal Persona 3 when FES is available.
There's an Amazon exclusive repack of FES that comes with the art book and soundtrack of the original. It's the one I ordered --- Sold my FES and bought the collector's one.
It's still possible to get the deal though if you take the BB ad to someplace like Walmart that price matches and then use the coupon.
Damn BestBuy. That coupon is accepted frickin' everywhere but there.
GoGamer.com
Rock Band World Tour Complete Kit 360/Wii = $99 for the next 30 hours.
Rock Band World Tour Complete Kit Wii $99
I don't know if that applies everywhere though.
Thanks for clearing up the confusion guys, I appreciate it.
As a side note, for whatever reason, the link to the amazon page refuses to come up as anything except the basic package, so make sure you're ordering the special edition before you click that order button.
Atlus really loves Amazon, basically.
I'm fucking buying it next trip into that wretched gamestop for ten dollars. And I don't even own a DS.
It's a very good deal, to be sure. I can finally pick up Little Big Planet and Uncharted!
Got that from CheapAssGamer, just to give credit where it's due.
